My husband is from the beautiful island of Jamaica. I made up this recipe for spice buns & he loves them. Excellent served with a slice of processed cheese. On the island they usually serve this during Easter with Tastee Cheese (canned cheese). Enjoy!

The spice bun is an Easter tradition in Jamaica. However, since I am now living in Malaysia and couldn't go to the grocery store to purchase HTB or Yummy buns here, I decided to try this recipe. I was pleasantly surprised as the bun came out much better than I anticipated. It was extremely moist. It is the real deal!1Reply
